I have no coach, because we have no masters program. I use my own experince, this board and other web sites to find a work out. I do however have the opportunity for help with our local high school swim coach. Who is a master swimmer and a really good coach.
What does everyone do?
Do you coach yourself are you in a masters program?
And how many times a week do you swim and how far?
I'm up to 2000 yds each swim, swimming 3 times per week.
"I get massage and ART about twice a month to relieve subscapular tension. I've learned that my shoulders get tender if my subscap is tight. It gets tight even with good technique, simply because when you stroke correctly, it's the locus/connector for a lot of large-muscle loading." (posted by Terry on "who's got shoulder problems thread)
Terry:
Now, here you previously admitted that your shoulders get sore and tight. It isn't all biomechanics. I'm thinking your shoulders are happier than mine cuz you are getting more of that ART and massage stuff. :D I'm jealous! Leslie
